I found (and will fix) two problems with the MetaWeblog API in Roller:

   MetaWeblog API post without categories won't work
   https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ROL-1923

   MetaWeblog API file upload broken
   https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ROL-1924

Once I fixed those problems, I was able to post with Windows Live Writer.

Thanks,
